Beside her, Xiao Jin, who looked almost exactly like her, behaved unusually calmly.

His eyes were moving among the crowd with a serious expression. For some reason, he always had a bad feeling about tonight.

As if something is about to happen.

"Why is the Tenth Prince so serious?"

Jiang Xue looked at him and asked softly.

She had been observing this child for a long time along the way, and he was so mature and steady that he didn't look like a seven-year-old child at all.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I always feel uneasy." He replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the chief eunuch shout loudly: "The emperor has arrived."

Everyone looked up and saw Emperor Beiling appear in front of them with Wu Meifeng in his arms.

"Tomorrow we will be hunting. Everyone knows that this enclosure is so small and the number of prey is limited. If we don't allocate and demarcate the areas in advance, it will easily become a mess. So tonight, I asked you to gather here to divide the territory in advance, so as to avoid a mess tomorrow and make it difficult to manage."

"Hasn't the division of territory always been decided by drawing lots before hunting in the past? Why is it being divided in advance this time?"

Xiao Yun was confused and looked at Xiao Zhan in doubt.

"I guess someone fanned the flames, which led to this incident."

Xiao Jin nodded his chin towards Wu Meifeng in Emperor Beiling's arms.

What is this woman doing again?

"Father is wise. My brothers have made progress this year. The hunting will definitely be more exciting. It is indeed a wise move to divide the territory in advance." Xiao Huan stepped forward and echoed Emperor Beiling. He glanced at Wu Meifeng out of the corner of his eye and smiled with satisfaction.

The land of gentleness and the tomb of heroes, it has always been proven to be true.

After all, this woman Wu Meifeng is still somewhat useful.

Royal hunting is not just about hunting, it is more about showing power and strength.

The quality of the territory allocated during the hunting season symbolizes the status of each prince in the north.

The south direction is the best, followed by southeast and southwest, then due east and due west. The one connected to the north is the worst, especially due north, where there is almost no prey and it is desolate.

During a hunt, whoever kills the most animals will receive the highest honor.

Those with fewer prey will be punished to varying degrees, which will serve as a warning.

"In previous years, the division of territories was decided by drawing lots, which was too monotonous and boring, so this year, I decided to try a new method. Each of you choose a servant to compete, and the winner can choose the territory first."

Emperor Beiling ran his fingers between the royal family members and his gaze lingered on Xiao Zhan and Xiao Huan for a moment.

"Your Majesty, this is a very interesting idea. Qin Tian, ​​I also want to participate. Can I join in the fun?"

Wu Meifeng smiled charmingly and stroked Beiling Huang's chest lightly with her slender jade fingers, making his heart flutter.

"Of course, as long as you have the right person, just say it."

Emperor Beiling was so fascinated by her that he readily agreed.

The queen sat aside, smiling on the surface, but when you saw her skirt wrinkled at her knees, you could tell how jealous and annoyed she was inside.

She had originally wanted to support this Wu Meifeng to get closer to the emperor and build up her own power, but now this woman not only did not help, but instead kept hanging around in front of her, which was really annoying.

Noticing Wu Meifeng's gaze turning towards her, Jiang Xue knew that this woman was going to cause trouble again.

"Qinwen heard that the two maids around Princess Gong are very skilled. How about letting one of them fight on behalf of Qinwen?" Wu Meifeng was secretly delighted and acted coquettishly to Emperor Beiling.

"Okay." Emperor Beiling agreed without even asking Jiang Xue: "Which one do you want?"

"Well, let's choose her." Wu Meifeng pointed at Xiaochun and said.

She had disliked Xiaochun for a long time, and this time she took the opportunity to teach her a lesson.

There was a hint of viciousness in his eyes, but he maintained an innocent smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, Changle's two maids are injured and may not be suitable for participating in the competition."

Jiang Xue stepped forward, protected Xiaochun behind her, and said to Emperor Beiling.

"The competition is limited to a certain extent. It doesn't matter if you get hurt." Emperor Beiling completely ignored her opinion: "Qinwen is just playing around. She is just a maid. Princess Gong will not be reluctant to let her go, right?"

Beiling Emperor stared at Jiang Xue, there was something in his words.

The emperor had a tough attitude, and if she opposed it in public, she would probably be charged with disobeying his order.

By then, not to mention protecting Xiaochun, she wouldn't even be able to protect herself.

He turned around and gave a look to Xiao Zhan who wanted to join in, signaling him not to act rashly.

"Since the emperor said to stop at a certain point, I believe everyone knows the limits, so Changle won't worry."

Jiang Xue deliberately emphasized "stop when enough", saluted, and glanced at Wu Meifeng with a warning look.

"Be careful." Turning back, she whispered something to Xiaochun and watched her slowly walk towards Wu Meifeng.

Tieyi looked at Xiaochun's back, full of worry.

Princess Qinwen obviously has bad intentions. She specifically asked Xiaochun to go into battle. I don't know what she will do to her.

If she dared to touch Xiaochun, he would definitely help Xiaochun get justice.

"Okay, the competition for dividing the territory will begin soon. You should quickly decide on the candidates and don't waste time." Emperor Beiling said.

Soon, everyone present chose a servant to represent them in battle.

Xiao Zhan chose Qing Feng, Jiang Xue naturally sent Fu Dong, Xiao Jin borrowed Tie Yi, and Xiao Huan chose the mysterious figure who even Linglong Pavilion couldn't find out the details about - Jue.

"It seems that tonight is destined to be unpeaceful."

Jiang Xue looked at the gray-clothed man beside Xiao Huan with a serious expression, and a sense of uneasiness surged in her heart.

As expected, as soon as the Beiling Emperor announced the start of the competition, Wu Meifeng stood up, pointed directly at Jiang Xue, and said maliciously: "Your Majesty, Qin Wen wants to compete with Princess Gong."

This statement caused an uproar at the scene.

The first round of this round of competition was not a duel between princes, but a contest between two women. This was the first time in Beiling’s history.

"How can this be possible?" Xiao Yun said anxiously before Jiang Xue could speak.

"Why not?" Wu Meifeng raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yun with a mocking look in her eyes: "I just said that I am just here to join in the fun. Since this is not a real competition, I will naturally not act recklessly and affect the princes.

Among the people present, I think the most suitable and familiar one is Princess Gong, so I would like to invite Princess Gong to play with me, is there anything wrong with that? "

What she said was flawless. Yes, as someone who was just there to join in the fun, of course she couldn't compete with the prince who was preparing seriously, lest she be accused of being ignorant.

Besides, Xiaochun is very powerful. Among the female relatives present, except Fudong who is beside her, no one dares to fight with Xiaochun.

In this way, Jiang Xue became the most suitable target.

"Qinwen is right, Mo, don't be rude."

Emperor Beiling hugged Wu Meifeng tightly and supported her. After all, she was his new love, and he would certainly not let her suffer any grievances.

"Changle, Qinwen sincerely invites you to make a good start for this round of competition. What do you say?"
